What the roaster says about where it came from

Country
Ethiopia, Kenya, Yemen
Region
Yirgacheffe, Kochere
Process
washed
Variety
Heirloom
Not stated
farm or estate, producer, altitude, harvest, lot, importer, price paid to the producer

We report what the roaster publishes and we have not checked any of it independently. A fact nobody publishes is not a fault of the coffee: almost no roaster in the UK states an importer or the price paid to the producer.

Where each fact came from

Variety

“The indigenous ‘heirloom’ varietals - which grow wild in Ethiopia - are responsible for the unique flavour notes which make for an unusual but beautifully refined cup, characterised by strong citric acidity, sweet chocolate and floral/herbal notes of lavender, jasmine, bergamot and thyme.” the roaster’s page (opens in a new tab)

Flavour families

“In milk we get lemon meringue, with a touch of that florality in the finish.” the roaster’s page (opens in a new tab)

…+ Roast & Brewing Information This is a light roast coffee, and we’re really happy with how it's performing as filter but it can be a really interesting espresso too, berry like, light and silky in texture, with great sweetness. part of a longer passage the roaster’s page (opens in a new tab)
